CASA Welcomes New Child Advocates With Swearing-In Ceremony

CASA of Central Texas welcomes new advocates! Each volunteer completed 5 weeks of training, background checks, courtroom observation and is now ready to advocate for children in court.

Volunteers are ready to be assigned to children who have been removed from their homes because of abuse and neglect and are now placed in the state’s care.

As advocates, the volunteers will get to know everyone in the children’s lives and speak up for them in court, advocating for their best interest.

More than half of the children in State care do not have a CASA volunteer in Central Texas. That is more than 600 children in Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe and Hays Counties.

Free training courses are held throughout the year. For dates and to enroll in a training course, please contact CASA at (512) 392-3578 or (830) 626-2272, or visit www.casacentex.org.

Learn more about CASA at monthly information sessions, held in cities throughout Caldwell, Comal, Guadalupe and Hays Counties. Check here for times and locations.
